Chapter 128:128, your Xiaobai is an idiot!
Translator: 549690339
“She thought you were coming to see me, so she brought her servant to find me, said a lot of nasty things, I got angry and argued with her, then she pushed me. I had just had surgery, and I had absolutely no strength, so she pushed me off the bed,”
Xiao Yebai looked at her without saying a word.
Because he was wearing glasses and the curtain was just pulled open, the light that came in was reflected off the lenses, making it unclear, and it was impossible to make out his expression.
The unknown made Xiao Zhiwei feel nervous.
She lowered her head, and covered her face with both hands, “The doctor said that I can never have children again. It’s all her fault! She hates me, so she purposely pushed me…”
With that, the woman couldn’t help but start to sob softly.
“If you knew she hated you, why did you deliberately argue with her?”
The man’s indifferent words made Xiao Zhiwei’s shoulders stiffen up.
She raised her face, unable to resist asking, “Does this mean, brother, you are blaming me now?”
“She was the one who pushed me off the bed, why are you blaming me for starting an argument with her?” Xiao Zhiwei couldn’t control her anger. “Indeed, I argued with her, but is that really all my fault? You’ve known her for so long, she is like a spoiled princess, she thinks the world has to revolve around her, otherwise she throws a tantrum! But you are blaming me? Brother, why do you always protect her? Why…”
“I didn’t protect her.”
Xiao Yebai’s voice was still indifferent, but his words made Xiao Zhiwei’s face change instantly.
He said, “I just believe her.”
The ward fell into a deadly silence.
It was a while before Xiao Zhiwei managed to ask, trembling, “So, brother, you mean she didn’t push me, I am lying? I intentionally made myself fall off the bed, risking my own body, and making sure I can never get pregnant again, can never be a mother?”
Xiao Yebai stood there, unmoving.
In fact, from the moment he stepped into the room, aside from ordering Aunt Jiang to call the doctor, then asking her to take Mo Weiyi away, his posture hadn’t changed at all.
He was wearing a black shirt and trousers, his figure was indifferent but emitted a sense of loneliness.
No matter how chaotic the surroundings are, he never showed any emotional fluctuations, like a cold-blooded creature, radiating a “keep out” aura.
“Xiao Zhiwei,” Xiao Yebai suddenly reached out and took off his glasses.
He held the glasses with his slender, fair fingers, his eyelashes drooping, and spoke in a low voice, “Did I tell you that she injured her foot when she slipped in the bathroom last night, fractured her toe, had a splint on it, and couldn’t move.”
Xiao Zhiwei’s face went pale as if she was losing color layer by layer.
Xiao Yebai continued, word by word, explaining, “And she was sitting in a wheelchair at the time, at arm’s length from your bed. Like you said, she’s a delicate princess. She doesn’t have the strength to push you directly off the bed.”
A slight breeze blew in from the outside.
Xiao Zhiwei felt cold as if waves of chills were hitting her.
Even though it was just early September and the sun was shining brightly outside, she couldn’t stop trembling, and her heart was beating furiously.
Xiao Yebai’s voice continued to echo in the room, “The Mo Family arranged a maid for you, but you drove her away and had her call me saying you had a stomachache and couldn’t eat, and tried to persuade me to buy you porridge.” “Brother, it’s true my stomach hurts, I really couldn’t eat the hospital food…” Xiao Zhiwei raised her voice to explain, but just as she lifted her eyes to meet his,…
Without the glasses’ disguise, the man’s eyes were deep and dark, with dense eyelashes. They were very deep, beautiful, but cold, showing no warmth.
He looked straight at her, his gaze sharp and indifferent, as if he could see through people’s hearts.
Xiao Zhiwei felt a tightness in her chest, she closed her mouth, unable to speak.
“If you want to continue to recuperate here, keep your intentions in check, behave yourself, and don’t provoke her again. Otherwise, I’ll call your parents and have them come to take care of you.”
“No!” Afraid, Xiao Zhiwei blurted out, “Brother, I beg you, don’t tell them, brother…”
Xiao Yebai did not say anything more.
He put his glasses back on, put his hands back into his pockets, and the elite man’s demeanor was restored.
Then, he turned around and left.

Mo Weiyi’s foot was not seriously scalded, the porridge wasn’t that hot, so the skin wasn’t broken.
After the doctor applied the burn ointment and bandaged the wound, he gave some precautions.
Mo Weiyi sat on the hospital bed, looking at both of her small feet wrapped in white bandages, her lips pouting to the sky in anger.
“Weiyi, did you really get in a fight with that Xiao Zhiwei?” Su Wanwan could not resist the curiosity inside her.
Mo Weiyi pursed her lips, her mood seemed to have eased a bit. After the doctor left, she eventually told the story of what had happened.
At the end, she said, “Wanwan, I really only pushed her lightly.”
Su Wanwan nodded, “I believe you.”
Although Mo Weiyi was a bit of a princess, she knew right from wrong when it came to important issues.
Having known her for over a decade, unless someone deliberately provoked her, she wouldn’t harm someone for no reason.
After all, with her kitten-like strength, who could she possibly hurt? Especially when she’s injured her foot.
“But Xiaobai doesn’t believe me.”
This was what upset Mo Weiyi the most.
Of course, Su Wanwan knew how much Mo Weiyi cared for Xiaobai, so she immediately said, “Weiyi, if your Xiaobai really doesn’t believe you, thinking that you pushed him off the bed, then unless he’s blind, he must be an idiot!”
As she spoke passionately, Mo Weiyi was staring blankly behind her as if frozen.
Sensing that something was off, Su Wanwan quickly turned around.
As expected.
The “idiot” she had mentioned just walked in from outside.
Su Wanwan blinked, cursing inwardly.
What the hell, how come this guy is just like Huo Jingshen, walking without making a sound?
Luckily, Xiao Yebai just glanced at her indifferently before picking up his phone and car keys from the coffee table.
“I have a meeting at the company. Aunt Jiang, I’ll be bothering you with the things here.”
Even his voice was cold!
“Xiaobai.” Mo Weiyi called out plaintively.
The man paused but didn’t turn around, “I have an important meeting at 2 o’clock. We’ll talk about other things when I get back.”
Having said that, he left.
Su Wanwan touched her racing heart in relief.
Damn it, who was he trying to scare with that poker face?
Huo Jingshen was still better; at least he wasn’t this cold.
She wasn’t even aware that she had started to subconsciously compare other men with Huo Jingshen.
And then, as if the idiom “speak of the devil, and he shall appear” came true, her phone rang. And it was that man who called.
“Weiyi, I’m going to take a call.”
**
Su Wanwan answered the call in the corridor, “Hello.”
“Did Grandma call you?”
“Yeah.” Thinking of the bizarre things Mrs. Huo said, Su Wanwan quickly asked, “What happened?”
“Nothing much,” Huo Jingshen replied casually, “I picked up Ziyang last night, and reporters took pictures of us, creating some misunderstandings.”
“I see.” So that’s why Mrs. Huo kept apologizing…!! was awkward.
Huo Jingshen changed the topic, “I’ll pick you up from school tonight. Zhexi’s parents are back, let’s have dinner together.”
“Ah? But I…”
“It’s settled. I’m busy now.” Saying so, Huo Jingshen hung up the phone.
Damn it!
Su Wanwan glared at her phone.
She had just praised him a moment ago, and now he was being domineering. Indeed, all men are damn chauvinists!

Huo Yuan Group.
As soon as Huo Jingshen hung up the phone, another call from Grandma Huo came in.
“Grandma.”
“Ah Shen, did you really tell me the truth just now?” Mrs. Huo sounded skeptical, “I must remind you, if you ever do anything to hurt WanWan, I won’t hesitate to punish you myself!”
Huo Jingshen massaged his temple, sounding helpless, “Grandma, I have a meeting soon.”
Mrs. Huo apparently ignored his words, “I specially dug out old photo albums just now. Good Lord, that child looks so much like you.”
Huo Jingshen:”…”
“Ah Shen, are you listening to me? That child looks like you…”
“He is my friend’s son, as for why he looks like me,” Huo Jingshen calmly spoke his narcissistic thoughts, “maybe it’s because good-looking people tend to look alike.”
Mrs. Huo was speechless for a moment:”…”
Right after hanging up, his phone rang again.. This time, it was from Nangong Ci, “Well done, big brother, you’ve made it to the headlines of the entertainment magazine!”
